This article describes the ressearch of the business process mapping, modelling and process simulation (BPM) support tools usage and rate in Czech companies in years 2009 and 2010. The article is also aimed on some choosen attributes influencing the measure of BPM usage, on managerial willingness to improve their decision and planning processes and on the outsourcing possibilities. Eight hypothesis was solved on the representative sample of the Czech small, middle and big sized companies with activities in main twelve fields of activities. The very importent part of the article/reserch is the part aimed on the usage of the BPM superstructure - optimalisation module.

In the programming period 2007 - 2013 the implementation of the European Union cohesion policy is carried out through eleven operational programmes within the frame of objectives Convergence and Regional Competitiveness and Employment. The overall European Union resources invested the amount of approximately € 11 bn. in these programmes, which is distributed under the supervision of the Transport, Construction and Regional Development of the Slovak Republic (formerly only Ministry of Construction and Regional Development of the Slovak Republic). Among these instruments is the Operational Programme Environment with total allocation of € 1,8 bn. The objective of this paper is to analyse attributes of all projects that have been approved from the beginning of the programming period until March 2013. This will enable to further study the spatial characteristics of the evaluated programme and discuss the breakdown of the beneficiaries at different levels of spatial hierarchy or the eventual volume of intervention under auspices of this programme in individual regions of the Slovak Republic. The volume and the direction of the investments in relation to the spatial dimension present a new view on implementation of the cohesion policy instruments.

The article deals with the description of analytical methods suitable for analysis of logistical systems. The description is focused on a wide range, starting with a general description of analytical methods, gradually specifying methods suitable for logistics and finally outlines new methods of analysis fit for logistical systems. Below the article specifies the basic concepts of research, the general description of the approach to research, the description of research methods and their applications, the description of research methodology focusing on logistics and the resulting description of the methods used in logistics. The aim is to summarize the general outline of the methods follow the link between the solutions of exclude logistical problems and special matrix operations applied to the apparatus of Petri's networks.
